I think for this reason AP, just like meditation, should be separate and distinct from one's daily routines - including the winding down of the day and going to bed. I suffered from insomnia for many years in my teens, so I'm keenly aware of the triggers and habits that can cause the inability to fall asleep.
My suggestion - as an AP newbie but as an experience meditator and former insomniac - is that one makes AP sessions a separate part of one's day, at least so that it doesn't blend in with going to sleep. Otherwise it can be like reading an exciting book or playing an intense computer game only minutes before switching off your bedstand light.
How you integrate that into your own routine is left an exercise for the reader...
